The Big Boo Cast, Episode 471

8 December 2025 by

On this episode I sound like I’m recording inside a tunnel, and Melanie is clearly surrounded by a great deal of yard work, but neither of these things stops us from sharing our feelings about rivalry weekend (WOMP WOMP), Lane Kiffin (ENOUGH ALREADY), Thanksgiving festivities, parking lot etiquette, and (in Melanie’s case), Stranger Things. 

There’s also exciting live show news, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 470

28 November 2025 by

It’s Rivalry Week in college football, so on this episode Melanie and I discuss the Aggies’ upcoming showdown with the Longhorns and the Bulldogs’ annual battle with the Rebels. Naturally this leads to the two of us sharing / pontificating / pondering about all the Lane Kiffin coaching drama, so you’re welcome for all of our thoughts despite the fact that not a single soul has asked us what we think.

Mel also shares about her weekend of Christmas decorating, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 469

20 November 2025 by

Well, the Aggies got ‘er done against South Carolina in the most dramatic way possible this past Saturday, so in this episode Melanie and I are going to break down her experience watching the most epic SEC comeback in the modern football era. And if you’re thinking that what you just read sounds a little bit like Jesse Palmer introducing an episode of The Bachelor, well, you’re not wrong. Which is to say: this is a football-heavy episode. Because Aggies.

We also make time to talk about what we’ve been watching and what I’ve been cooking. Plus, it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

As has been the case all season, college football has given us plenty to talk about this week (OKAY AGGIES), along with the fact that Melanie and I both got to spend some time at our alma maters. As usual, we break down Side Eyes and I See Yous – and I share why I am teaching myself to focus on Other Hobbies and Pursuits for the rest of the winter.

We also discuss what we’re listening to and watching, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

4 November 2025 by

Well I’ve been to the beach, Melanie has conquered a seasonal closet clean-out, and the Mississippi State Bulldogs have won their first SEC game in two years. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE. This week Melanie and I discuss all of these things along with our thoughts on Auburn’s coaching news and my resolve to be a little more boundaried on social media in November.

We also discuss our Side Eyes / I See Yous, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 466

30 October 2025 by

Well, it’s the best of college football times for Melanie, the worst of college football times for me – and a straight-up soap opera for anyone keeping an eye on the coaching carousel. We talk about all of these things on this episode (Melanie Shankle is ON A HIGH, my friends), as well as our time together in San Antonio for the live show (and an aggressive amount of Mexican food).

We also follow up on The Great Tall Boots Quest of 2025, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!
